First, depending how much power you require.....for small venues a Roland CM30 and others would do....but for larger venues.... I would consider the Yamaha DBR series....active speakers, there is a 10, 12 and 15 inch, the smaller has 700 Watts, the larger both have 1000 Watts, and can be use in different ways, like a wedge monitor, or if needed as a main, can be put also in a speaker stand and the best part that is very light in weight in comparison to the Trynor amps that are more suitable for guitar. Keep in mind that when a manufacturer makes an amplifier, the speaker is also designed to handle those particular frequencies, the guitar has highs and middle range, the keyboard has a much wider range, therefore, the speaker has to be different. Just my 2 cents.

The only dedicated keyboard amps I've owned were Peavey's KB-150 and KB-500. Both were brutes to haul around, the vocals were always muddy sounding, and the keyboard, at performance levels, sounded distorted.

Donny, while the KC-110 boasts that it is 30-watts, that is strictly peak power - not RMS. And, it is rated at 15-watts per channel, which is about the same as your keyboard's onboard speakers. I can't say anything about the Traynor K4, mainly because I don't know anyone that uses one and have never heard it. However, I'm always a bit skeptical about stereo amps that are in a single housing. Just don't make sense to me. All the best, Gary
